Favorite Posts So Far

Blog-tember Monday, Sept. 19: A list of your favorite blog posts you’ve written. I love my dogs.  They mean the world to me.  To keep them warm while hiking, I made them suits.  They hate putting them on but they keep them warm. My niece got married last fall.  She wanted me to make her […]

Not Just One

Blog-tember Sunday, Sept. 18: One product that simplifies your life. How can I limit myself to just one? My dishwasher for one.  I hate doing dishes.  So having a dishwasher makes my life easier and happier. Allows more time to do other things like quilting. My rotary cutter. Without which I would probably never gotten […]

Crazy Adventure

Blog-tember Thursday, Sept. 15: What is the craziest adventure you’ve ever been on? It would have to be my current quest of hiking the 4000-foot mountains (as classified by the Appalachian Mountain Club) in New Hampshire. There are 48 of them ranging from 4003 feet in elevation to 6288.  The tallest is Mt Washington.  I had […]

Switched

A Day in the Life

Blog-tember Saturday, Sept. 10: A day in your life! Take us through it with you by sharing a photo each hour of the day. This was a tough one for me.  The thought of taking a picture every hour just didn’t work for me.  Keeping track of time is not my strong suit.  I’m not […]

Dream Vacation

Friday, Sept. 9: If you could go anywhere in the world, where would it be? Why? I have never really wanted to go anywhere in particular. While I enjoy seeing new places,  I just love New England. I live where you can be in the city, country, lakes, beach or mountains within a couple of […]

My Quilting Space

Blog-tember Thursday, Sept. 8: A house/apartment/room tour! Give us a glimpse of your space. I have posted pictures of my sewing space before, but I have yet to show you where I quilt.  Like some of the longarm quilters I know, my longarm is in my basement. Who has room for a longarm in their […]
